BULLETIN NO. 3 



KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS SCHOLARSHIPS 

FOR 

DEMOBILIZED SERVICE MEN 



PURPOSE OF BULLETIN. 

In view of the widespread interest that the Knights of Col- 
timbus scholarship awards have attracted throughout the coun- 
try, this bulletin is issued for the purpose of presenting a detailed 
announcement of the distribution of the scholarships to date, 
together with a description of the terms of the awards and of the 
method of procedure. 

BASIS OF SELECTION. 

Every candidate whose application in proper form was re- 
ceived within the time limit set by the Committee, and who was 
certified as eligible for admission to the college for which he 
applied, was notified that he would be awarded a scholarship, 
provided that he entered at once, or at the beginning of the 
second semester, at the latest. In every instance the decision as 
to the eligiblity of candidates was made by the college authori- 
ties^ 

NUMBER OF AWARDS. 

To date*, 415 applicants have been certified as eligible for en- 
trance, and 383 have taken advantage of the offer and have 
been awarded scholarships in 36 institutions. Of the total num- 
ber of awards, 86 are for academic courses leading to the degree 
of Bachelor of Arts and 297 are for technical courses leading to 
the degree of Bachelor of Science or its equivalent. 

* Dec. 22, 1919. 



At the present time 336 students are enrolled and in attend- 
ance. Arrangements have been completed for the enrollment 
of the other 47 at the beginning of the second semester of the 
current school year. 

Final reports have not yet been received upon the eligibility 
of 45 applicants for scholarships in the Colorado School of Mines, 
and of 19 applicants for scholarships in the University of Missouri. 
It seems probable that when these two institutions are heard 
from the total number of awards will exceed 400. 

By reason of delay in determining the eligibility of candidates 
for admission to the University of Missouri, the Committee has 
decided that all those applicants who qualify may enter at the 
beginning of the second semester. Inasmuch, however, as the 
courses at the Colorado School of Mines are so arranged that 
provision cannot be made for the admission of students into the 
freshman class in the middle of the college year, the Committee 
has granted to those applicants who qualify for admission as 
freshmen at that school, special permission to enter at the begin- 
ning of the next school year, in the fall of 1920. This permission 
is extended, of course, only to those whose applications were sub- 
mitted to the Supreme Secretary previous to the closing of the 
lists. 

The Committee wishes to announce that no more scholarships 
will be offered and that none of those now held by students will, 
under any condition, be transferred to other persons. 



ORIGINAL ANNOUNCEMENT. 

The first announcement of the offer was made on August 17., 
1919, when the following statement was issued:

Applications giving full particulars, the course desired, and 
the institution preferred must be filed on or before Spetember 1, 
1919, with the Supreme Secretary, ICnights of Columbus, New 
Haven, Conn. All applicants must be prepared to meet the 
ordinary qualifications demanded by the institution for which 
they apply. 

^The Committee reserves the right to make distribution of the 
scholarships throughout the country and among the various 
institutions above mentioned. In determining this matter, 
both the marks received by the applicants in the entrance ex- 
amination and the widest possible distribution of the scholar- 
ships throughout the country will be considered." 



REVISION OF PLAN, 

It will be noted that it was the original intention of the Com- 
mittee to limit the number of scholarships to 100 and to make the 
awards upon a competitive basis, the comparative merits of 
applicants to be determined by examinations which would be 
conducted by the boards of entrance of the various institutions. 

Preliminary arrangements, therefore, were made with the 
college authorities in accordance with these plans. The number 
of applicants, however, was so great and the task of determining 
the comparative qualifications of the candidates became so in- 
creasingly difficult, that the Committee decided to award a 
scholarship to every student who might be certified as eligible for 
admission to the institution for which he applied. It was decided 
also that the time limit for receiving applications should be 
extended to September 30, 1919.

Total, 


2,291 





Of this total many were rejected because applicants failed to 
specify the preferred college or course or because application was 
made either for colleges or for courses such as law, medicine or 
dentistry, that were not included in the offer. Circulars were 
issued to all such applicants, advising them of the irregularity of 
their applications and notifying them of the requirements of the 
Committee. Many applications also were rejected because they 
were not submitted within the time limit. 



ACTION ON APPLICATIONS. 



The total number of applications submitted to the colleges, in- 
cluding those corrected in conformity with instructions issued, 
was 1002. Careful investigation of the qualifications of each of 
these applicants was conducted by the college authorities, with 
the result that 415 students have been certified as eligible for 
entrance to the various institutions. 

The following tables show the number of complete applica- 
tions, the number of applicants certified as eligible and the num-

Wherever colleges could arrange to submit bills covering the 
entire expense of the scholarship a draft for the first semester was 
forwarded in advance. In all other cases the tuition and inciden- 
tal fees for the first semester were paid in advance and a draft was 
sent to the bursar as a deposit to cover each student's necessary 
expenses, with the understanding that where board and lodging 
were not provided by the institution, each student should receive 
a weekly cash allowance of twelve dollars ($12.00).

REPORTS AND VISITATIONS. 

The Committee feels that its responsibility with relation to 
the public and to these young men whom it is assisting to secure 
an education is by no means terminated with the completion of 
the necessary arrangements for their matriculation and for their 
maintenance at college. It feels that its interest in them should 
be continuous during their entire course, that it should require 
a complete record of the progress of each, to be furnished by the 
college authorities, and that it should keep in close personal 
touch with every student through frequent visitations by its 

10 



representatives. For the purpose of obtaining the necessary 
information concerning the personal history of the students, a 
questionnaire will be issued to each by the Committee. 

It is gratifying to be able to state that reports received to date 
from, various institutions and from many of the students them- 
selves, indicate that they are deeply appreciative of the oppor- 
tunity that has been presented to them and that they are imbued 
with the spirit of earnestness, of diligence, and of determination 
to succeed. 

CO-OPERATION OF COLLEGES. 

Any account of the Scholarships would be incomplete that 
failed to make mention of the splendid co-operation of the college 
authorities. Notwithstanding that a tremendous burden was 
imposed upon them at very short notice and at the busiest 
time of the college year, especially in the case of those institutions 
for entrance to which the number of applications was large, they 
exerted every effort to assist the Committee in the selection of 
the eligible candidates and in the arrangement of the details of 
the awards. 

The Committee wishes to make grateful acknowledgement, 
therefore, of that co-operation and assistance on the part of the 
college authorities, without which the successful accomplish- 
ment of its purpose on behalf of the ex-service men would have 
been impossible. 

The following excerpts from letters received by the Committee 
from College Presidents contain the best possible expression 
that can be offered of their cordial endorsement of the awards as 
a valuable contribution to the work of reconstruction. 

From Rt. Rev. Thos. J. Shahan, LL.D., 
President, The Catholic University of 
America, Washington, D. C. 

"I desire to congratulate the Knights of Columbus on 
their recent activities in the field of education and espec- 
ially on the generous provision they have made in behalf 
of young men who are returning from the service of their 
country to the occupations of civilian life. The establish- 
ment of the scholarships, while it offers special advantage 
to the students who have obtained them, is at the same time 
a patriotic measure. It shows that the fine American 
spirit which animated the Knights during the war is guiding 
them in the work of reconstruction; and I am confident 
that its results will be equally beneficial in securing the 
blessings of peace. 

11 



The holders of the scholarships in the Catholic Uni- 
versity are young men of promise. They give the im- 
pression of a seriousness which is doubtless the effect of 
their experience in the service, and which will now con- 
tribute to their success as students. There is every reason 
to believe that they will show their appreciation of the 
opportunities afforded them by the Knights of Columbus 
and acquit themselves with credit to the Order. 

In co-operation with the Knights, the University will 
do all in its power to accomplish the high purpose for 
which the scholarships have been awarded and to develop 
in each of the scholars a loyal devotion to the ideals which 
have inspired your Order in its various undertakings.''^ 

From Richard C. MacLaurin, LL.D. 
President, Massachusetts Institute of 
Technology, Cambridge, Mass. 

''The Committee on War Activities of the Knights of 
Columbus has rendered a most important service to the 
Nation in the awards that it has made of scholarships to 
ex-service men. This is one of the most practical means 
that could be devised of rendering assistance to men who 
gave themsevles to their country in the great national crisis. 
Not only was the plan good, but the methods of carrying it 
out were wholly admirable.''^ 

From Rev. Edward P. Tivnan, S. J., 
President, Fordham University, New 
York, N. Y. 

''The idea was a splendid one, practical in every detail, 
and constituted what, to my mind, was the best possible 
method of showing gratitude to those of the returned soldiers 
who cared to avail themselves of the opportunity. They 
gave the best there was in them to make the world, and this 
country in particular, better. It was assuredly a happy 
thought to offer them in return the opportunity of improving, 
by means of a sound education, their former condition.'' 

From Arthur T. Hadley, LL.D., Presi- 
dent, Yale University, New Haven, 
Conn. 

"The work of the Committee on War Activities of the 
Knights of Columbus in awarding scholarships to ex- 
service men who wish to study in the colleges and technical 
schools of the country is admirable both in its conception 
and its execution. » 

12 



Nothing is more important for reconstruction than to have 
the supply of educated and trained men kept at its normal 
level, and to give men who have patriotically served their 
country in war the chance to serve it effectively in time of 
peace. Among the many efforts to secure this object that of 
the Knights of Columbus takes an important place, and 
promises to be carried out. with the same good judgment 
which has characterized the war work of that organization.'' 



From Rev. James J. Carlin, S. J., 
President, College of the Holy Cross, 
Worcester, Mass. 

' * It is my humble opinion that your funds could not have 
been put to a more noble or more profitable use. After 
faith there is no more precious possession than a properly 
developed mind and trained faculties. And this boon you 
are placing within the grasp of some four hundred young 
men, who in time of war gave their services to their coun- 
try. 
J Although vain praise is not the end you have in view 

in this noble work, there is no doubt that oil men will com- 
. mend you for it and there is no one who will not concede 
that the splendid reputation which the Knights of Columbus 
have won the world over for their charitable and disinterested 
service during the war, will be enhanced immensely by 
this post-war plan to educate so many deserving young 
men.'' 



From Ira N. HoUis, Sc. D., President, 
Worcester Polytechnic Institute, 
Worcester, Mass. 

''In the first place, I want to say that the business method 
of the Committee seems to me admirable. We have usually 
found dealings with the Government tedious beyond any- 
thing, and to find any agency dealing with a question such 
as you have undertaken going ahead with its business 
without red tape and without imposing all kinds of restric- 
tions is refreshing. 

I consider the award of these scholarships a useful and 
entirely proper use of the funds at the disposal of the 
Knights of Columbus. It will do much to assist in the 
rehabilitation of soldiers who have beeen of service to their 
country."

From Rev. James M. Brogan, S. J., 
President, Gonzaga University, Spo- 
kane, Wash. 

It is with great pleasure I have observed that you extended 
your first plans on the Knights of Columbus Scholarships. 
I cannot forbear sending your body a few words stating 
what I think of your action. 

Your body, the Knights of Columbus, have performed 
a yeoman service in the Nation's need during the late war, 
as they have done it in the troublous and anxious months 
that have since elapsed. Though your organization is 
comparatively recent they have already accomplished more 
than any of us dreamed they could do during our lifetime. 

Their work on the battle-line, their courage, their faith, 
their patriotism aroused and strengthened the morale of the 
army; their work for the soldiers and sailors has brought' 
Europe's blessing on America; in brief they have shown 
the practical value, the great superiority, of our Christian 
principles of loyalty to Country and loyalty to God. 

I doubt whether anything they have accomplished will be 
as far-reaching, as effective, as lasting, as this, their crown- 
ing work of bestowing scholarships on the boys who fought 
and bled for our Country. 



From Alexander C. Humphreys, LL.D., 
President, Stevens Institute of 
Technology, Hoboken N. J. 

"I take this occasion to express to you and your organi- 
zation my warm appreciation of this undertaking of 
yours to give to those who have served their country in this 
war crisis an opportunity to more completely equip them- 
selves educationally for their work in life. The arrange- 
ment you propose to make is certainly one which should 
appeal to the very best that is in these young men. I am not 
at the moment prepared to say exactly how well these men 
will do that are with us, but we shall keep you clearly ad- 
vised as to their progress and we shall do everything in 
our power to help them to help themselves. 

I am particularly impressed with the broad minded way 
in which you are assigning these scholarships, for apparently 
neither race nor religion is involved. 

Under the circumstances the least we can do is to co-oper- 
ate completely and loyally on our part to make this work 
efective.'' ♦ 

14 



From Rev. William T. Doran, S. J., 
President, University of Detroit, 
Detroit, Mich. 

"I^ certainly gives us a great deal of pleasure to add 

our mite to the good things that have been said by other 

college men relative to the splendid work that the Knights 

J of Columbus are doing for returned soldiers and sailors. 

Without your help most of these men would be unable 
to go on with their education, and hence would not do the 
work for their country that your scholarships will enable 
them to do. Hence they will be forever obligated to the 
Knights of Columbus for occupying the position in life 
that shall be theirs. 

A hearty 'God speed you' in your good work." 

From Victor C. Alderson, LL.D., 
President, Colorado School of Mines, 
Golden, Colo. 

"J feel that the work of the Knights of Columbus in 
providing scholarship facilities for the discharged officers 
and men of our Army and Navy is worthy of the highest 
commendation. In the very near future the world will de- 
mand engineers of the greatest possible ability. The re- 
organization of our industries, the development of our 
natural resources, and general readjustment will require 
a very large number of specially trained men. There is 
no better way to supply the needs of the country than to 
help to an education those who wish to help themselves. 
Scholarships, such as the Knights of Columbus have es- 
tablished, meet this need in the most practical and efficient 
way. 

I assure you of the cordial and hearty support of the 
Colorado School of Mines in your effort.'' 

From Rev. James J. S. Dean, O. S. A., 
President, Villanova College, Villa- 
nova, Pa. 

'^ Permit me to express to your Committee, and through 
it to the Knights of Columbus as a whole, our apprecia- 
tion of the splendid work you are doing in the cause of 
V education and in the interests of American citizenship. 

Your Order seems to have been the first to realize the 
fact that education must be one of the foremost influences 
in the great work of reconstruction. In this, however j you 



are but continuing the program so successfully carried 
out during the war both at home and abroad. To have 
grasped the situation so quickly indicates a clearness of 
vision that augurs well for the future, and to have under- 
taken the task so energetically, without precedent to guide 
you, betokens a degree of confidence that must needs bring 
success. The spirit which prompted your action is, deserv- 
ing of the highest commendation and we trust that abundant 
and meritorious fruit will reward your labors. 

The method adopted for the selection of suitable candi- 
dates for your scholarships was both wise and prudent. 
Those who have already served their country in time of 
"^\J peril will surely be the first to realize the new danger and 
will be most zealous in defense of otir national institutions. 
Your farsightedness has resulted not merely in a splendid 
reward accruing to those who have deserved well of their coun- 
try and its people, but also in a guarantee of even more 
enlightened and devoted service for the future. The con- 
tinuation of such a policy and its adoption by other agencies 
is the surest pledge of our national perpetuity. ^^ 

From Frank S. Kedzie, Sc. D. Presi- 
dent, Michigan Agricultural College, 
East Lansing, Mich. 

"I feel that I speak for the institution which I represent 
when I assure you that we appreciate very much the oppor- 
tunity to assist in carrying out such a beneficent project 
as that inaugurated by the Knights of Columbus respect- 
ing the support of a number of young men in order that 
they may complete the full four year course at this college. 

I am confident that the young men who are sent here 
by your organization will fully appreciate your generosity 
and will, with our help, prove to your association that the 
granting of this assistance to the young men returning 
^ from the service of their country was the best possible use 
which could be made of the money left in the hands of your 
society at the close of the war.'' 

From Rev. James A. Burns, C. S. C, 
President, University of Notre Dame, 
Notre Dame, Ind. 

'^My personal acquaintance with the young men who 
have been awarded scholarships at Notre Dame by the 
Committee on War Activities of the Knights of Columbus 
has confirmed my conviction of the serviceableness and time- 
ly 



^ 



lines s oj this signal educational benefaction. The funds 
which remained at your disposal for War Activities could 
not he put to any purpose which would he more advantageous 
to the entire American people. 

These young men represent the very flower of our Ameri- 
can manhood. All of them responded loyally to the call of 
their country for self-sacrificing patriotic service. Many 
of them were wounded or suffered some other disahility 
while in the army. They are eager for an education, 
which they would he unable to secure, in most instances, 
had not this opportunity been afforded them. 

Not only these young men, but the entire nation will 

be the gainer by your wise and generous policy. The num- 

/ her of America's educated men will he increased by the 

^ number of men you have sent to the colleges, while, at the 
same time, thousands of others will probably he spurred 
on, by the example of these young men, to secure the advan- 
tages to he derived from pursuit of the higher cultural, 

\ scientific and technical studies. 

In the era of reconstruction which lies before us, this 
increased college enrollment will mean much for the 
further development of the higher life and work of the nation. 
Nothing, in fact, which the Knights of Columbus has 
accomplished will, in the future, redound more to its credit 
and glory than this notable educational achievement.'' 

From Rev. John B. Creeden, S. J., 
President, Georgetown University, 
Washington, D. C. 

''The one hundred and eight applicants for Knights of 
Columbus scholarships at Georgetown University have 
been examined and forty-seven have been enrolled in the 
School of Foreign Service. The Regent of the School reports 
that the students are good, earnest men and that few, if^ any, 
could have attended a school of higher education without 
the assistance furnished by the Knights of Columbus. 

The Order is to he congratulated upon its generous effort 
to reward patriotic services and to promote scholarship 
and efficiency.'' 

From Edgar Fahs Smith, LL.D., 
President, University of Pennsylvania, 
Philadelphia, Pa. 

''The University of Pennsylvania is deeply interested 
in what the Knights of Columbus has done for returned

soldiers. We are glad to say that those who have come 
to us are proving very worthy recipients of the trust you 
have reposed in them. It was a splendid act on the part 
of the Knights. 

From Very Rev. Hmnphrey Moynihan, 
A.M., D.D., President, College of St. 
Thomas, St. Paul, Minn. 

"J beg to thank you for the Knights of Columbus scholar- 
ships granted to the young men assigned to this College. 

These students, you will be pleased to hear, are of the very 
highest type, conspicuous for their serious and studious 
character, and for an unusually fine sense of responsibility. 

~ You will allow me to add that I cannot conceive of any 
measure which would be adopted by the Knights of Colum- 
bus combining more completely all the features of an en- 
lightened benefaction than that which has been so happily 
embodied in these scholarships. '' 

From David Kinley, Acting President, 
University of Illinois, Urbana, 111. 

**/ can only say that the idea seemed to me well con- 
ceived and worthy of great praise. Here fifty scholarships 
were awarded and thirty-five of the recipients have regis- 
tered." 

From Rev. John F. McCormick, S. J., 
President, Creighton University, 
Omaha, Nebr. 

''The Knights of Columbus have undertaken a work 

6f genuinely patriotic service in establishing their scholar- 

^ ships for ex-service men. It is a work of reconstruction 

worthy of the Order that reflected such credit on the Catholic 

name in the war-work it carried on here and abroad." 

From Fred W. Atkinson, Ph.D., 
President, The Polytechnic Institute, 
Brooklyn, N. Y. 

''The movement instituted by your War Activities 
Committee in granting college scholarships to ex-service 
men is one, the benefits of which to our country and nation 
will be seen not only in the immediate future, but more 
and more in the years to come. The generous provisions 
under which the four or five hundred men are pursuing 
their higher education in preparation for their life work has 

18 



^^ 



lifted a tremendous burden from their shoulders and has 
in many cases made the impossible possible to them. It 
has also stirred them with a new hope and enthusiasm^ and 
has filled them with a feeling of thankfulness to the public 
that afforded them these opportunities. 

Through this fact we can be assured that the devotion 
these men displayed while in service will, if anything, be 
enlarged, and that while they will be made more capable 
in the matter of pursuing a successful career, they will also 
be retained as loyal citizens and leaders with a willingness 
to serve their country at all times and in all ways possible.'' 

From Winthrop E. Stone, LL.D., 
President, Purdue University, 
Lafayette, Ind. 

"The action of the Committee on War Activities of the 
Knights of Columbus in awarding scholarships to dis- 
charged soldiers attending Purdue University has been 
taken in an unusually broad-minded and generous way. 
The scholarships have been awarded to very deserving 
young men who, as an outcome of their patriotic service as 
. soldiers, now have opportunities for an education which 
otherwise would have been beyond their means. Such a 
provision on the part of a patriotic organization is in my 
judgment the most substantial contribution that can be 
made to reconstruction problems. 

I wish to express my unqualified approval, i^t only 
of the action, but of the spirit with which it has been carried 
out." 



From Rev. Bernard J. Otting, S. J., 
President, St. Louis University, St. 
Louis, Mo. 

"Is it too much to be hoped that this peace movement of 
the KnigJits of Columbu^ will win the admiration that it 
deserves? May admiration grow into imitation so that we 
may henceforth look back at this allocation of the funds of 
the Knights as the first impetus of a great movement that 
will gain momentum with the years. 

I, for one, cannot commend too highly this most recent 
action of the committee. I question whether any of its 
highly and justly praised war measures showed greater 
wisdom, or met so well the needs of the hour for America. 
I pray that the example may not be lost on our people.'" 

19

From Rev. John C. Stuart, President, Du- 
buque College, Dubuque, la. 

"Z wish to state that the Knights of Columbus scholar- 
ships will be a great help in reconstruction and rehabilita- 
tion and that they will directly benefit a large number of 
our heroic young men who answered the call to the colors.'" 



SPIRIT OF STUDENTS. 

The spirit of appreciation and of earnestness on the part of 
those men to whom scholarships have been awarded is clearly 
evidenced in the following few brief excerpts from the many 
letters which the Committee has received. 

From Joe S. Roper, a scholarship stu- 
dent at the Colorado School of Mines, 
Golden, Colo. 

"Right now K. of C. is the symbol of the strongest 
^ Americanizing agency and of the most aggressive and 

^ ^/ efficacious enemy to the disentegrating forces in the 
United States. 

Nowhere is the realization of this so apparent as among 
ex-service men and it is accompanied by a confidence and 
friendliness which no organization ever had before." 

From Andrew Bergman, a scholarship 
student at The Catholic University of 
America, Washington, D. C. 

*'I a#i ready to enter the Catholic University at the 
beginning of the second semester subject to your further 
approval. A good many doughboys, after the restless- 
ness and excitement in France, have pent up in them a 
longing to become bigger and broader citizens of our fair 
land and are looking for a chance. I have found mine 
v" in this scholarship through the Knights of Coltimbus. 
We feel no greater benefit can be bestowed on us than 
these scholarships and in our eyes the K. of C. rank 
first in promoting 100% Americanism. May I not thank 
you heartily and wish you every success in your en- 
deavors." 

From Vincent D. Cavanaugh, a scholar- 
ship student at the University of Notre 
Dame, Notre Dame, Ind. 

"I need not tell you how grateful I am to the Knights 
of Colimibus for the splendid opportunity they are 
giving me in the War Scholarship at Notre Dame. 

20 



It is a further instance of the fine spirit of generous 
and disinterested helpfulness that characterized the 
Knights wherever they served and which the men who 
served with the A. E. F. in France will never forget. 

I can best show my appreciation by earnest applica- 
tion to the work of the university and by such conduct 
as will prove that the confidence of the Knights has not 
been misplaced in me.'- 

From Ralph Henry Alden, a scholarship 
student at Massachusetts Institute of 
Technology, Cambridge, Mass. 

"I am one of the war veteran students to whom the 
Knights of Columbus have given free scholarships 
in various institutions of learning throughout the 
United States. 

In regard to the plan of the Knights of Columbus I 
-^ think it an admirable one, and should be given credit by 
all people regardless of their religious creed. 

I wish to thank you and your organization for the 
scholarship you have given me. It has afforded me an 
opportunity of which I had never dreamed. I realize 
that in order to enjoy its complete benefit I must main- 
tain a good standard of scholarship, but I shall try to 
do my best, and I believe that that best shall be more 
than enough to carry me through." 

From Earl A. Gill, a scholarship stu- 
dent at Wharton School of Finance, 
University of Pennsylvania, Philadel- 
phia, Pa. 

"As one of the fortunate ones winning a Knights of 
Columbus scholarship in the Wharton School of Finance 
in the University of Pennsylvania, I wish to thank the 
organization through you for this unusual privilege. 

The possibilities that have come to me through the 
generosity of the Knights are so great that I am at a 
complete loss to express my appreciation. 

I feel that I can best express it by earnestly applying 
myself to- the course I have chosen and thereby reflect 
credit on myself and on your splendid organization." 

From Hubert F. Brennan, a scholarship 
student at Massachusetts Institute of 
Technology, Cambridge, Mass. 

'T am taking this opportunity of sincerely and most 
gratefully thanking the Knights of Columbus organiza- 

21 



<J 



tion for the offering and awarding of scholarships to the 
ex-service men of the United States. I can hardly 
express my real feelings in this respect, but I will most 
perseveringly try to show my appreciation by making good 
and by becoming of some ultimate value to my country 
in the great crisis of reconstruction." 



From Thomas E. Gushing, a scholar- 
ship student at the University of Penn- 
sylvania, Philadelphia, Pa. 

"Having been awarded a scholarship b}^ the Knights 
of Columbus Committee on War Activities for a course 
in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Penn- 
sylvania, I wish to express my sincere thanks to the men 
who represent so great an organization, for what has 
been done for me. I intend to put forth every effort 
possible to obtain results that will show my apprecia- 
tion of the scholarship better than any other way." 

From Edward E. Craig, a scholarship 
student at the University of Illinois. 

"It seems to me fitting to try to express through you 
to the Knights of Columbus my appreciation of their 
help in making this a real day of thanksgiving for me 
and many others. 

While I was in the hospital in Chicago, came your 
notification that I had been granted a scholarship. You 
may be able to imagine what it meant to me, but I doubt 
it. I foresee long months of hard work ahead. I may 
have trouble in passing all my subjects this semester, 
for I have missed much of the work. But thanks to 
the Knights, I can foresee my graduation some fine day, 
clear of all debt except the great debt of gratitude to 
the Knights." 

From Ralph E. Elliott, a scholarship 
student at the University of Minnesota, 
Minneapolis, Minn. 

"I consider myself very fortunate in receiving your 
scholarship, for without it I should probably have been 
unable to continue my course, as I have no funds or 
opportunity to borrow any. Believe me, I cannot 
sufficiently express my appreciation of your organiza- 
tion."
